Verdict

This drop back in trip could precipitate a return to winning ways for LERWICK, who did the job well when making all at Pontefract on his penultimate start prior to finding 9.8f on soft ground too much of a test at Ripon recently. Harlem Nights arrives here on the back of a couple of solid efforts in defeat and rates the main danger, while handicap debutant Elusive Empire, Hale End and John Chard VC all merit consideration, too.
